Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros: Just a couple weeks ago the Hollywood Bowl announced much of its 2013 season, albeit with a few holes remaining to be plugged, particularly with regard to KCRW's monthly World Festival installments. One of those vacancies just got filled: the Aug. 4 show featuring the Sun Ra Arkestra and Oliver Mtukudzi just gained the Magnetic Zeros as headliner.

Also, singer-songwriter Matthew E. White has been added to the She & Him/Emmylou Harris & Rodney Crowell evening on June 23. Tickets are currently only available as part of subscriber packages. Single tickets become available in early May.

Bruno Mars: Last week he announced his Moonshine Jungle World Tour by revealing only the markets he will play. This week he has attached dates and venues, and they're exactly the places we suspected: Staples Center on July 27, San Diego's Valley View Casino Center on July 30 and Las Vegas' MGM Grand Garden Arena on Aug. 3.

Ellie Goulding opens the first two shows, Fitz and the Tantrums warm up in Sin City. But only the L.A. gig goes on sale soon, March 1. The others will likely become available a week or two after that.

Green Day: Here's your reminder that tickets for the trio's April 18 show at the Los Angeles Sports Arena go on sale Friday, Feb. 22, at 10 a.m. Best Coast has been added as opening act. Prices: $29.40-$49.50.

Alkaline Trio: The punk group issues its winkingly titled ninth album, My Shame Is True, on April 2 via its Epitaph Records subsidiary Heart & Skull, led by first single "I Wanna Be a Warhol." They'll kick off a tour behind it April 25 at the Observatory in Santa Ana, $25, followed by an April 26 show at House of Blues San Diego, price unavailable. After criss-crossing the country, the band will return June 11 to headline House of Blues Sunset Strip, $22. Bayside opens all dates, on sale Friday at 10 a.m.

Also at HOB Sunset: reggae greats Toots & the Maytals, March 28, $24.50; and Finnish outfit HIM, May 3, $37.50, also on sale Friday at 10 a.m.

Keyshia Cole: The R&B star is heading out on a month-long tour supporting her November album Woman to Woman, with Grammy-winning vocalist Chrisette Michele in tow. The pairing plays April 19 at Club Nokia, $49.50-$85.50.

Meanwhile, Blackstreet, the group that gave us "No Diggity," is back in action, prepping its first album in 10 years. They play the L.A. Live venue on May 3, $29.50-55. Both of those shows go on sale Friday at 10 a.m.

Also at the club: UZ with 12th Planet, French Fries and more, March 7, $15-$35.

Intocable: The Tejano ensemble, now two decades into its career, has two dates at House of Blues Anaheim, June 21-22, $4, while ranchera star Lorenzo de Monteclaro appears there July 27, $32.50.
